| People who took up corporate jobs in the twenty-first century would remember the ubiquitous Sodexo coupons—multi-colored paper passes that could be redeemed for meals at canteens and restaurants; accessing training sessions, books, and leisure activities, among other facilities; and purchasing everyday items. The coupons were circulated and managed by Sodexo, a French food services and facilities management company founded in 1966 by Pierre Bellon. By opting for Sodexo coupons as part of their salary, employees could receive tax rebates. |
